NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 1-SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The accounting and reporting policies and practices of Gilmer Financial Services, Inc. conform to generally accepted accounting principles and to prevailing practices within the savings and loan industry. The unaudited interim financial statements were prepared in accordance with instructions for Form 10-QSB and, therefore, do not include information or footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. However, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements have been included. The results of operations for the three month period ended September 30, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for an entire fiscal year. The OTS has adopted a regulation which requires that, for purposes of calculating regulatory capital, unrealized gains or losses related to accounting for certain investments in debt and equity securities under SFAS 115 are not included in the Bank's regulatory capital. As a result of this rule at September 30, 1996, the Bank's core, tangible and risk-based capital was increased by approximately $102,952 above the capital calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Effective July 1, 1996, the Bank adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 122, "Accounting for Mortgage Servicing Rights" ("SFAS No. 122"), and amendment to FASB Statement No. 65. SFAS No. 122 requires that a portion of the cost of originating a mortgage loan be allocated to the mortgage servicing rights based on its fair value relative to the loan as a whole. This statement eliminates the accounting distinction between rights to service mortgage loans for others that are acquired through loan origination activities and those acquired through purchase transactions. While this statement did not have a significant effect this quarter, management believes that this standard will have an impact on the Bank's operating results and financial condition in the future. NOTE 2-CONVERSION On July 13, 1994, the Board of Directors of the Bank, subject to regulatory approval and approval by members of the Bank, adopted a Plan of Conversion to convert from a federally chartered mutual savings bank to a federally chartered stock savings bank with the concurrent formation of a holding company. The conversion was designed to be accomplished through amendment of the Bank's federal charter and the sale of the holding company's common stock in an amount equal to the consolidated proforma market share of the holding company and the Bank after giving effect to the conversion. On February 9, 1995, Gilmer Savings Bank completed its conversion. The Bank issued 195,755 shares of stock. All of the Bank's outstanding common stock will be held on the Holding Company's books. NOTE 3-RECOGNITION AND RETENTION PLAN The Board of Directors of the Company adopted and obtained stockholder approval at the October 12, 1995 stockholder's meeting, a Recognition and Retention Plan (RRP) to enable the Company to provide officers and employees with a proprietary interest in the Company as incentive to contribute to its success. Officers and employees of the Company who are selected by members of a committee appointed by the Board of Directors of the Company will be eligible to receive benefits under the RRP. The Company has available to award 7,830 shares of Company stock and awarded 4,303 shares, with the remainder being reserved for future award. The shares granted are in the form of restricted stock to be earned and payable over a five-year period at the rate of 20% per year, effective on the date of stockholder ratification. Compensation 6 GILMER FINANCIAL SERVICES, INC. NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 3-RECOGNITION AND RETENTION PLAN (CONTINUED) expense in the amount of the fair market value of the common stock at the date of the grant to the officer or employee will be recognized pro rata over the five years during which the shares are earned and payable. RRP Plan expense totalled $2,152 for the three month period ended September 30, 1996. NOTE 4-EARNINGS PER SHARE Earnings(loss) per share for the three month period ended September 30, 1996, have been computed by dividing the net earnings by the weighted average common shares outstanding. Shares controlled by the ESOP are accounted for in accordance with Statement of Position 93-6, under which unallocated shares are not considered in weighted average shares outstanding. Earnings(loss) per share for the three months ended September 30, 1996 was (.21) per share based on weighted average common shares outstanding of 200,058. Earnings(loss) per share for the three months ended September 30, 1995 was .34 per share. NOTE 5-RECLASSIFIED Certain items previously reported have been reclassified to conform with current period reporting form 7 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS General Gilmer Financial Services, Inc. was formed in July of 1994 and is the holding company and owner of 100% of the common stock of Gilmer Savings Bank FSB of Gilmer, a federally chartered stock savings institution. In this discussion and analysis, reference to the operations and financial condition of the Company includes the operations and financial condition of the Bank. On February 9, 1995, the Bank completed its conversion from a mutual to a stock savings institution. On that date, the Company issued and sold 195,755 shares of common stock at $10.00 per share to complete the conversion of the Bank from mutual to stock form ("Conversion"). Net proceeds to the Company were approximately $1.6 million after deducting expenses of approximately $320,000. The Holding Company's business currently consists of the operations of the Bank. As a consumer-oriented financial institution, the Company offers a range of banking services to residents of its primary market area. The Company is principally engaged in the business of attracting deposits from the general public and investing those deposits, along with funds generated from operations and borrowings, into mortgage, commercial, and consumer loans. The Company also invests in mortgage and government backed securities and certificates of deposit. The Bank's results of operations are primarily affected by its net interest income, which is the difference between interest income earned on its loans, investment and mortgage-backed securities and other investments, and its cost of funds consisting of interest paid on deposits and borrowed funds, including Federal Home Loan Bank advances. Net income of the Bank is also affected by non-interest income, such as loan origination and commitment fees, loan servicing fees and other income, and non-interest expense, including compensation and benefits, insurance premiums, losses on foreclosed real estate and provisions for losses on loans. The Bank's net income also is affected significantly by general economic conditions and competitive conditions, particularly changes in market interest rates and actions of regulatory authorities. Financial Condition September 30, 1996 Compared to June 30, 1996. Total assets increased $136,700, or .35% to $39.2 million at September 30, 1996 from $39.1 million at June 30, 1996. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in loans of $920,000, partially offset by a decrease in mortgage-backed securities of $460,000 and a decrease in cash and cash equivalents of $286,000. Loans receivable were $20.4 million at September 30, 1996, and $21.4 million at June 30, 1996, an increase of $920,000, or 4.3%. This increase is primarily attributable to a more favorable interest rate environment for home financing. Mortgage-backed securities decreased $460,000 from $16.2 million at September 30, 1995 to $15.7 million at June 30, 1996. The decrease was primarily due to principal repayments on mortgage-backed securities. Cash and cash equivalents decreased $286,000 from $981,000 at June 30, 1996 to $694,000 at September 30, 1996. The decrease in cash was due primarily to an increase in loan demand. Investment securities decreased $5,000 from $328,000 at June 30, 1996 to $323,000 at September 30, 1996. The decrease was due to principal repayments. Deposits remained relatively unchanged with an increase of $147,000 from $25.5 million at June 30, 1996, to $25.6 million at September 30, 1996. Federal Home Loan Bank advances decreased $60,000 due to repayments. Advances by borrowers for taxes and insurance increased $105,000 from $541,000 at June 30, 1996 to $646,000 at September 30, 1996. The increase is due to the majority of the property taxes not being due until the last quarter of calendar 1996. 8 Total stockholder's equity decreased $116,000 to $3,813,000 at September 30, 1996 from $3,929,000 at June 30, 1996. This decrease was primarily a result of a net loss of $43,000, along with a $79,000 increase in unrealized loss on securities available for sale. The Bank continued to exceed all of its regulatory capital requirements at September 30, 1996, with tangible and core capital of $3.6 million (9.20% of total adjusted assets) and risk-based capital of $3.8 million (20.65% of risk-weighted assets). Results of Operations The Company's results of operations depend primarily on the level of its net interest income and non-interest income and the amount of non-interest expenses. Net interest income depends upon the volume of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and the interest rates earned or paid on them. Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended September 30, 1996 and 1995 General. Net income(loss) for the quarter ended September 30, 1996 was ($43,000), an decrease of $104,000 from the quarter ended September 30, 1995. The decrease was primarily due to a $164,000 charge to income from the BIF/SAIF legislation enacted on September 30, 1996. Net interest income increased $55,000, non-interest income increased $8,000, offset by a $1,000 increase in provision for loan losses, a $219,000 increase in non-interest expense and a $53,000 decrease in income tax expense. Interest Income. Interest income totaled $729,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 1996, compared to $621,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 1995, an increase of $108,000. The increase was due primarily to increases in the average balance of loans and mortgage-backed securities. Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $54,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 1996 compared to September 30, 1995. This was primarily due to an increase in interest paid on Federal Home Loan Bank advances, due to the increase in average outstanding advances during the period. Provision for Loan Losses. The Company maintains an allowance for loan losses based upon management's periodic evaluation of non-performing loans, inherent risks in the loan portfolio, economic conditions and past experience. For the three months ended September 30, 1996, provisions of $6,000 were recorded. The Company will continue to monitor its provision for loan losses as economic and regulatory conditions dictate. Non-Interest Income. Non-interest income increased $8,000 from $49,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 1995 to $57,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 1996. The increase resulted primarily from an increase of $13,000 in loan origination and commitment fees, a $7,000 increase in loan servicing fees, and a $3,000 increase in other income, partially offset by a $15,000 decrease in income on real estate operations. Non-Interest Expense. Non-interest expense totaled $404,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 1996, compared to $185,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 1995, an increase of $219,000. The deposits of savings associations such as the Bank are presently insured by the Savings Association Insurance Fund (the "SAIF"), which, along with the Bank Insurance Fund (the "BIF"), is one of the two insurance funds administered by the FDIC. Financial institutions which are members of the BIF are experiencing substantially lower deposit insurance premiums because the BIF has achieved its required level of reserves while the SAIF has not yet achieved its required reserves. In order to eliminate this disparity, legislation to recapitalize the SAIF was enacted by Congress on September 30, 1996. The legislation called for a special assessment of 65.7 basis points of the March 31, 1995 SAIF assessment base. The special assessment resulted in a $164,000 charge to noninterest expense during the quarter ended September 30, 1996, which affected the Company's results of operations. Compensation and benefits increased $38,000 to $133,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 1996 from $95,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 1995, due to ordinary increases in staff, salaries, insurance, and other benefits, as well as ESOP and RRP contributions. Other miscellaneous expenses increased $14,000 from $67,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 1995 to $81,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 9 1996. The primary reason for this increase was an increase in fees associated with growth in checking accounts, as well as an increase in group insurance and moving expenses associated with the hiring of new employees. Income Taxes. The provision for income taxes decreased $53,000 from $33,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 1995 to ($20,000) for the quarter ended September 30, 1996, due to a net loss before taxes of $63,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 1996. 10 GILMER FINANCIAL SERVICES, INC.
